Master of Philosophy
Overview
The Master of Philosophy is a research degree aimed at those who intend to pursue research careers in a related field or who wish to upgrade their qualifications to give them a competitive edge in their employment by demonstrating superior ability and some research experience. It may also be used as a stepping stone to commencing a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD).
